FIGC Commissioner Roberto Fabbricini confirmed talks with Andrea Pirlo and Massimo Ambrosini, while Roberto Mancini will discuss the Italy job after May 14.

“We evaluated a future collaboration with Pirlo and Ambrosini, that is possible for the Under-21s or the Nazionale. They said they are available and that’s good to know we can be helped by two champions,” Fabbricini told Rai Sport.

After Carlo Ancelotti, it now seems likely Zenit St Petersburg boss Mancini will be appointed as the new Italy CT.

Carlo Ancelotti has asked to both his son and Andrea Pirlo in his staff if he takes over the Italy job, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.

The Coach had a meeting with the FIGC representatives this week in Rome and will give them a firm reply at the end of this month.

The latest reports suggest that Ancelotti laid down some conditions for taking the role and that includes having his son Davide – who already caused some waves at Bayern Munich – and former Italy hero Pirlo in his coaching staff.
